Despite Villainizing Oil For Years, Gov. Newsom Now Wants Refineries To Stay Open
Only last year, Newsom called the energy industry the 'polluted heart of the climate crisis.'
by Sean Moran  Apr 25, 2025 
 
Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) has directed state officials to help oil refineries stay open in the state despite years of “demonizing” the industry. [emphasis, links added]

Newsom directed state officials to guarantee a reliable fuel supply for the nation’s largest auto market.


This action comes just days after Valero Energy said on Wednesday it would permanently shut or restructure its refinery in Benicia by the end of April 2026, which accounts for nine percent of the state’s crude oil refining capacity.

Phillips 66 in October said it plans to cease operations for its Los Angeles-area refinery.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I’m betting he’ll throw his hat in a ring in 2028

He’s trying to do a Bill Clinton triangulation type thing and move to the center despite his very left leaning record

Will it work? It might.

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
